| Awesome episode. It's so funny how Bulma wants to use her wish to get the 'perfect' boyfriend. I had forgotten how funny Goku is when he's young :D |

It's not breaking in if the door is unlocked. |
| Unlike most of you, this is the very first episode out of the all the dragon ball series that I've seen. Although it is kind of old, it still seems pretty interesting. Goku reminds me of how Luffy is; they are both so ignorant yet kind of funny. I have a feeling that I'm going to feel like an idiot after waiting so long to watch this. |
 |
| Finally biting the bullet and watching Dragon Ball. Shame I cant find it in japanese I'm having to watch it dubbed which I hate. I liked this episode it was quite funny I know its too early to judge but I already hate Bulma. Goku is really sweet though. |
 |
| It was okay, nothing special. |

| I love this show!! And this episode was fantastic :D Goku is so innocent, and learning of Bulma and her wish was amusing xDDD |

| lol..she wants to wich for a boyfriend? O.o Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Managed to find a subbed version (pain in the ass, though.) Gotta tell ya, it's a little more vulgar than the dubbed (of course) But I still absolutely love it. |

insan3soldiern said: It was okay, nothing special. Same here. I'm watching it on japanese dub(yey). This is my first DB episode ever, so this is the first time I see Goku either. I'll probably leave this as anime with low priority which I can watch whenever I feel like watching something funny but yet most definitely worthless. |
  |
| Fun episode. I think I'm going to enjoy watching this series. I just randomly felt like watching DBZ again and started with this. |
LOL :D |
 |
| Finally got around to watching this first episode. Always wanted to know what Dragon Ball was like without the Z. It wasn't any good, but that was to be expected. Still worth watching, though. |
 |
| So this is where it all began, huh. I've never watched any of the original Dragon Ball so this should be quite the adventure for me. Wasn't a particularly spectacular episode but that's to be expected. |
| that because she got nevr get a real boyfriend with that selfish personality of hers :D |
 |
| Awesome I just love old style anime! Really liking the pace already so lets see what their adventure will hold! |
 |
| I fell in LOVE with DB since the beginning, the magic atmosphere and of course kid Goku and his cuteness <3 tbh it wasn't something special, but it got me hooked right away! my fave anime ever! |
| Another old anime to re-watch, first it was Slayers which is my favorite. And now DB which was always entertaining but never a favorite so I'm going to watch it again in a hope that this might change :). Quite funny so far xD. |
 |
| After watching all of Z, Kai (far superior than the original z, especially english voice acting btw, they improved so much, it is depressing to see people discredit it because of their nostalgia goggles) I'm finally watching the original series now, I tried starting with it but I couldn't get into it because it didn't have that DBZ, but now it will be cool to see Goku's backstory, how Piccolo is evil and all that jazz. |
| Goku is sort of a hick huh? lol. |
| This is my first time watching dragon ball, Goku seems funny, lol! |
If you don't like me, acquire some taste |
| Ah, what a great first episode. The way it sets up the adventure is great. I always thought the scene with Goku turning down Bluma's sexual offer was hilarious, too... and then that bike scene afterwards is just super great! :D |

| Well, popped my DB cherry at 37 finally. Not a bad start. Less kid-friendly than I thought but that's a-ok with me. What Goku called fishing, we now call twerking! |
| First time I see a DB chapter and I lol'd so hard. Spanish:  |
| Cute introduction episode! Started watching DBZ, and decided to put that on-hold to start from the beginning. Bulma, you fiesty girl, you! |
  |
| How young they were D: |
 |
| Well I finished rewatching Dragon Ball Z last year, then I trudged through the sea of wasted potential that was GT, so that leaves the only logical step a rewatch of the original Dragon Ball. |
| After years of watching anime I'm FINALLY getting around to the Dragonball franchise. Only way to really do it right is to watch Dragonball first! |
 |
| Bulma is a kid murderer & Goku's grandpa is a marble. Wack. |
| Finally taking the time to watch Dragonball. Cute episode, dumb wish. （。_°☆＼(- – ) |
| First episode wasn't impressive. :/ |
 |
| I guess it was about time I FINALLY watched Dragon Ball. And if the rest of the show continues to be as fun as this episode, then the number of episodes won't be much of a problem. |
| Just started watching Dragon Ball series and decided to do it from the beginning, I was expecting this to be a bad episode but it was pretty good |
| Going to be giving the entire series a shot for the very first time, including all the movies, subbed. It's safe to say that I'm quite late to the party, but I've been looking forward to enjoying Dragon Ball for a long time. |
| Going to finally start watching this. Good first episode. Looking forward to the rest. |
 |
| So does Goku turn Bulma's offer to peek or touch her but in the original Japanese dialogue? In the SJ manga translation I have, he says "Why would I wanna see your dirty butt?!". I'm watching the Manga Entertainment dual audio DVD in Japanese with English subs which says "touch" not "see" or "peek". |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| And so it begins... the very first episode of Dragon Ball... Old school anime has a charm to it so it'll be an enjoyable watch. I cant wait for spend months learning about the franchise! |
